In +particular there is no moderation team or policy for responding to concerns in +online discussions. However, it is important to clarify norms and expectations +as early as possible. + +To contact the Internet Archive privately about conduct concerns or to report +unacceptable behavior, you can email . + +## Overview + +- We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for + all, regardless of level of experience, gender identity and expression, + sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, + ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic. + +- Please avoid using overtly sexual aliases or other nicknames that might + detract from a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all. + +- Please be kind and courteous. There’s no need to be mean or rude. + +- Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or + implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom + a right answer. + +- Please keep unstructured critique to a minimum. If you have solid ideas you + want to experiment with, make a fork and see how it works. + +- This Code of Conduct applies to all online project spaces (including the + catalog itself, code repositories, mailing lists, chat rooms, forums, and + comment threads), as well as any physical spaces such as conference + gatherings or meetups. + +- All participants are expected to respect this code, irregardless of their + position or record of contributions to the project. + +## Unacceptable behavior + +The following types of behavior are unacceptable in the Fatcat project, both +online and in-person, and constitute code of conduct violations. + +### Abusive behavior + +- **Harassment:** including offensive verbal comments related to gender, sexual + orientation, disability, physical appearance, body size, race, or religion, + as well as sexual images in public spaces, deliberate intimidation, stalking, + following, harassing photography or recording, inappropriate physical + contact, and unwelcome sexual or romantic attention. + +- **Threats:** threatening someone physically or verbally. For example, + threatening to publicize sensitive information about someone’s personal life. + +### Unwelcoming behavior + +- **Blatant-isms:** saying things that are explicitly racist, sexist, + homophobic, etc. For example, arguing that some people are less intelligent + because of their gender, race or religion. Subtle -isms and small mistakes + made in conversation are not code of conduct violations. However, repeating + something after it has been pointed out to you that you broke a social rule, + or antagonizing or arguing with someone who has pointed out your subtle -ism + is considered unwelcoming behavior, and is not allowed in the project. + +- **Maliciousness towards other participants:** deliberately attempting to make + others feel bad, name-calling, singling out others for derision or exclusion. + For example, telling someone they’re not a real programmer or that they don’t + belong in the project. + +- **Being especially unpleasant:** for example, if we’ve received reports from + multiple Recursers or faculty of annoying, rude, or especially distracting + behavior. + +- Spamming, trolling, flaming, baiting or other attention-stealing behavior is + not welcome. + +## About This Document + +The Fatcat Code of Conduct is inspired by, and derived from: + +- [Recurse Center Code of Conduct](https://www.recurse.com/code-of-conduct) +- [Rust Language Code of Conduct](https://www.rust-lang.org/policies/code-of-conduct) +- [18f Code of Conduct](https://18f.gsa.gov/code-of-conduct/) + -- cgit v1.2.3
